As usual, don't player bash, don't flame, and don't balance whine. Failure to heed this warning will have consequences.

if he wins this series, 4-1 nerchio

Apologize

But he was right, his multitasking was so standard on Atlantis.

I'm pretty sure Nerchio isn't owning Mvp like Wax kept saying

I was being sarcastic.

Every Romanian I know is sarcastic

no race balance complaints pls.

Naaaarchio hasn't even forced MVP to open his mouth yet.

You've been looking at the wrong times, he probaly switches keyboard every game with the amount he is drooling.

Every Terran is drooling when he gets some of his hellions into his oponent's mineral line. That's also what Gumiho's towel is for, forget the sweaty hand story.

seriously, they should never let day9 cast a "naaarchio" game... its so annoying, also he isnt any good anymore like some has stated earlier.. Not up to par with strats and constantly changing the mind of the winner during fights.
Artosis + kaeleris would be the best choice

Why zergs doesnt split their army ? They move in a giant blob and seeker missles just destroys everything


Zergs don't micro a shit. You barely see any flanks, not even talking about unit splitting O_o


Only the highend micro, and KeSPA players seem to micro. DRG, Stephano (as much as I dislike him), Nestea when he doesn't hate kittens, Symbol.


Those names you named- yes. But in general (even at tournament level) their micro seems to be non-existant. This tournament proves that as well.

I hope people finally realize that QXC balance whines too much for a guy who simply doesn't have the skills to win tournaments.


This match has nothing to do with Balance.,

This is MVP. You are watching one of the Best plauers in the world


How so? Nerchio is also a top player obviously.

Still Mvp is way better...

Mvp vs. Nerchio Game 4:

Metropolis, Mvp mid left, Nerchio top mid.

3:00- Mvp opens CC first and then barracks at ramp. Nerchio opens hatchery first and then pool.

Maybe the Raven buff will help Terran out late game after all

Meh, it's just a speed buff.


Speed buff only helps a tiny amount, but I agree. It's meh and doesn't address the issue. Ravens are basically floating detectors until they eventually get enough energy to cast a missle. Makes their relative cost (not even including upgrades), hardly worth enough unless the Terran is very rich on a macro map like Atlantis or Metro. Try pulling this on possibly a smaller map like Ohana or Daybreak, probably not as easy.

Mmm. But it has been seen that proper amount of ravens and vikings obliterate any air flock. It usually comes down to micro.


I just wish it didn't take 5min for a Raven to have a missile after he spawn.

Where is your balance whine now?


Best SC2 player in history edging out #2 foreign Zerg?


Typical.


Do you have any objections to the ranking given to those players? I guess Nerchio is debatable? Because you are watching the best player in SC2 history hands down.

Especially MVP is debatable imo.
He is historically the best sc2 player yes, but atm? Dunno, he has had a lot of health issues and he is not as ahead of the other players as he once was.


I am sorry but the initial post you objected to stated unequivocally that Mvp was the 'best SC2 player in history'. You say this is debatable but that he is historically the best SC2 player?

???

Oh yea sorry, didnt read the initial post well enough.
But then again, its completely irrelevant if he is the best sc2 player in history or not. The only things that matter here is his current form.
